Insights:

Aswan and Ghazl El Mehalla should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Ghazl El Mehalla have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Aswan form and stats

Aswan's struggle is real here at Aswan Stadium with only 8 points collected from 10 Premier League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-2-6. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Aswan, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Aswan's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 2-4 versus Misr Lel Makasa (placed 5th). As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Heartbreak before that as Aswan lost 2-3 at Ismaily's place.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Aswan, as the Premier League home game vs Al Ittihad is only three days away.

Aswan have scored 8 league goals here from 10 matches, not a lot. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Aswan defense is not exactly impregnable. 16 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Ghazl El Mehalla form and stats

Playing away, Ghazl El Mehalla, who have the fewest scored goals (6) away in Premier League, have won 3 games, drawn 4 and suffered 3 defeats in the Premier League this season.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to El Gounah (placed 12th) in their previous outing. The Premier League match ended in a draw 0-0.

A 1-2 loss hosting Al Masry before that.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Mehalla manager K. Eid as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Misr Lel Makasa.

The attacking power of Ghazl El Mehalla when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 10 league matches away. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far).
